Find Your Stratus Sedan Color & Paint Code

Dodge paint codes can sometimes be a challenge to find. In years past, Dodge
used to place their color ID tags on top of the vehicle's radiator support, making
it a major challenge to locate because of the engine oil and grease that would cover them. Later Dodge models place the color ID tag on the drivers door jamb (where they should be!).

Location of Dodge Paint Code on a Color ID Tag:

The example above (and typical) Dodge color code format is:PNT : PRV

A Dodge color codes is usually three digits long and made up of numbers and letters. It usually begins with a "P". Before the Dodge paint are the letters "PNT:". These letters are short for "Paint Code." Thus, in the Dodge paint code example above, the color ID Tag reads "PNT:PRV" signifying a color code of "PPK."

Other Dodge Color Code Formats

Another typical Dodge color code format is:

BS/GBS

However, only the BS is the Dodge color code. This can also be shown as QBS,
PBS, TBS, etc. just to drive everyone crazy. The first letter is the
mysterious Dodge "Year Code" which regardless of what the intent was,
it just makes for confusing color codes.

BS corresponds to Dodge Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat. Again, the G in the
GBS is not part of the Dodge color code. Lately, Dodge has been wising up and
just listing the color codes as BS.

Two Tone Dodge Combination
Dodge has many two tone combinations for some cars. Two tones are two
different colors on your car. Dodge did not do a great job with two
tone color coding and often the secondary color information is just
missing so this makes it impossible to know without borrowing a color book
from us what colors you actually have.

Same Dodge Color Code, Different Name
Dodge, like all manufacturers, uses the exact same color across many
models and then will have a different color name for each model. It's the
same paint! This is why the color code is so important to order
the correct paint.

For example, BS above we call Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat. It could also be called Blue Clearcoat, Ocean Clearcoat, etc. depending on what the marketing department decided to call it.
